    This game has the best hype train, PR, and marketing campaign. But honestly, all you do is shoot. Where is the story, personality, and rpg elements? None, absolutely none. You might as well be playing a COD or battlefield game.

    PS: pick Hunter because Warlock and Titan jumps don't work as good.

    Сейчас при старте игры выводится лозунг "Black Liver Matter". Такие игры нам не нужны, жаль что приобрел ее когда-то.
    A message is displayed at startup screen - "Black Liver Matter". I think NO, that statement is not valid.

    One of the most boring games I have played. 60€ is an unbelievable price for nothing. The game has pretty beautiful graphics and cool shooting mechanic, and first 2 hours seemed interesting. But it so boring to kill thousands of aliens every boring and similar quest.

    The graphics are quite nice, but that is about all positive feedback I can give to this game.

    The writing is boring, the level design is horrible, absolutely empty levels with some brainless enemies,
    they ll just crouch behind cover and do nothing even though you just shot 2 guys next to them...

    Destiny 2 promised a lot. After playing through most of the games, I can say that I expected more. The characters are horrible - all trying to be funny constantly. It would be fine if it was Cayde-6 only, but it isn't. How am I supposed to take a game serious if it doesn't take itself serious? The graphics are good, and it is a well optimized game. Performance wise, there is nothing wrong.Destiny 2 promised a lot. After playing through most of the games, I can say that I expected more.

The graphics are good, and it is a well optimized game. Performance wise, there is nothing wrong.
    The gameplay is boring. It is the same over and over. You run through a similar, small map. Enemies appear. You shoot the enemies. Your ghost or some of the characters says something cheesy. Enemies appear once again. You shoot them once again. And it just goes like that. I have finished Destiny along with it's expansions, and except for the graphics, Destiny 2 shouldn't be a new game. They have a lot in common, not just the same atmosphere, but also the same gameplay, enemies, map system, quests and all that.

    On top of that, the game is a cash grab. Just look into all the frauds the developers have made. For example, they reduced the amount of XP you would normally have received for activities in max level. And they kept it hidden! Why? So it would take you longer to get those bright engrams (loot boxes), and that would increase the chance of you buying them for real money.

    So yeah - I am disappointed.    … Expand

    Boring shooter. You can't even imagine HOW BAD single player(or coop) company is. Lots of grid without any point.
    PC players are getting banned in droves for using things like discord or shadowplay while playing Destiny 2. No real response from bungie and no way to revert the ban.

    Bland yet enjoyable shooting, but unexcusable company policy and treatment of players. First scaling back XP earned for bright engrams, then removing that but increasing your total amount of XP required, and finally gating off end game content unless players buy the DLC.

    This game is a huge step back from the first one. The only thing that has improved is more cut scenes, but they offset this by literally destroying the established lore, and its pretty clear they have no clue where they want to take the game. Lastly almost no reason to play the endgame content, and skill weapons feel terrible and unrewarding.

    A decent game; outstanding visuals and sound, voice acting improved from the first game, more missions (though variety can become an issue) and combat mechanics are solid - it 'feels' good to shoot things and the horde type enemies are fun to engage with.

    All in all, it's enjoyable. Play the free demo first to decide for yourself.

    The game is extremely unstable. It will lock up and crash. It is near impossible to play though without crashing. Game crashes with a NULL pointer, meaning parts of the game were stripped out and there are bad pointers in the code. This is 100^ the fault of the architects of the game. Bungee should fire the entire team from the Architects, project managers and up.

Optimization of the game is one of the best, i can play it on my laptop which is about 3 years old and by the time of its release wasn't that powerful.

    The gameplay by itself is alright, nothing special, turn your brain off and shoot while collecting better gear. The same old mmo formula. It's good to reminisce of the Halo games on PC, as I have not had a xbox in a long time and haven't had the chance to play anything Bungie in years.It's alright for a few hours of shooting but gameplay? You can run past most of the enemies until you're stuck in an arena and must kill some to progress..I realized I don't have to kill the enemies and can run past them most of the time.. Funny. Anyway..for a humble sale I got my moneys worth and experienced what these so called modern games are all about.

    Now Level lock behind paid dlc? I thought I was getting the full game with the humble bundle sale. Most games are free to play these days I doubt any paid games will survive for long, it's only a matter of time before the netflix of gaming comes along, see Origin vault.    … Expand

    Destiny 2 is not a sequel, its more of a reworked/reboot of Destiny 1 addressing all the issues that players had problems with and fixing them but in doing so, also introduced new problems in the process. To be blunt, I believe that this game is not worth your time or your efforts and is a very subpar game overall. Discussed below are the different aspects of the game, explaining whether the aspect is a strong point or a weak point of the game. I highly advise you read to the end of the review.

    Gameplay

    The gameplay within Destiny 2 is one of the best in games currently and certainly the best within its genre being a Loot Shooter. Bungie has outdone themselves much like the first game with their intriguing "Supers" and abilities featured in the the three classes in the game: Warlock, Titan and Hunter. The mobility and verticality is something that feels familiar to players of COD Black Ops 3, Advanced Warfare, Infinite Warfare and Titanfall 1&2. This is accentuated further during the "Supers" where you truly feel powerful and almighty which makes for a great experience.

    Animations & Graphics

    Again, credit has to be given where it's due, Destiny 2 has some of the best graphics in games today with cool, breathtaking animations that immediately make the user feel godlike and incredibly satisfied with the game.

    Story & Progression

    The one extreme down point in Destiny 1 was it's embarrassing lack of story telling and that is something that the devs at Bungie took into consideration when creating Destiny 2. Although the story in Destiny 2 is a lot more comprehensive, it's by far one of the most cliche story lines in a game with themes recycled from other games as well as movies.

    Progression wise, Destiny is one of those games that really gets you excited in the early stages in the game as any game should, with the early progression really keeping players glued to their machines, being as it's extremely rewarding and attractive. It was refreshing to see the new take on how the player obtains their "Super" ability through the broken shards of the Traveller where you complete a short mission to activate your unique 'relic' depending on the three subclasses being Arc, Void or Solar.

    Looting

    The big boy of the game, one of the main reasons you play the game and quite possibly the ONLY reason you might've thought when considering the game. So, has it been done well? Yes but to a certain extent. Compared to the first game, where legendary weapons and armour were a chore to get and exotics were borderline impossible at times, Destiny 2 eliminates that by giving all players a fair chance to obtain the weapons they want without all the hassle. Early on, you will find how frequent legendaries drop and the few rare (but not extremely rare) chances that even exotics drop for you, which gets you hyped and yearning for more. Even within the main story itself exotics are given as mission rewards. Depending on your class, you will earn armour pieces unique to it with one mission giving you the rather difficult option between 3 formidable exotic weapons. As a consequence, this quickly becomes the downfall of the game as you realise the challenge, as in the REAL grind for exotic weapons, has been snatched away and soon, it doesn't matter what you earn from the game as everything stops feeling epic, given how often you obtain high rated gear. It was a great gesture removing the encrypted engrams that really sent people over the edge in the first game, but it really doesn't help the game's case when you spend hours grinding to obtain exotic engrams only to get DUPLICATES, meaning getting the same weapon/armour piece you already own. The exotic quests are nothing special, just a different way of eliminating foes and earning your "badass" exotic weapon at the end of it and so don't be too excited.

    DLC

    Notably, the date of this review is extremely late and rightfully so as I just had to write this review upon the announcement of the Destiny Forsaken Expansion, priced at $55 AUD with $30 paid updates under their so called "Annual Pass". If you take into account the original price of the game being $70 itself with the two already released expansions - Curse of Osiris & Warmind - priced at $30 for both, the total price comes to $185 AUD. I'm sorry but this unacceptable and rather shameful to see how much money both Activision and Bungie are expecting from fans for just ONE game. It's outrageous that payments for increased end game content is now a necessity for these two companies where other games who work on a free to play model such as Warframe are offering their fan base rich, sustained and FREE updates.

    Overall

    Score = 5/10 for the game before Forsaken
    3/10 for the game after Forsaken

    I would say just don't get the game but you're free to choose how you spend your money, just be satisfied. For your own sake.    … Expand

    So Destiny 2 the first play-through was quite exciting and I loved it(I played as hunter class) and then I decided to play another class(the magic one) and that is the moment when I found out it very boring since no new weapons no new ways to play it was the same shooter game with different abilities(which I used rarely when playing as hunter) basically classes are not unique IMO.

    Also at the 2nd play-through I noticed that AI are hiding behind the obstacles whenever I aim at them which was frustrating since killing a lesser enemy with such an effort and no reward for it was kinda frustrating...basically you have to approach the enemy in the melee combat to not feel the frustration...
    So the game has interesting storyline especially I loved the "failsafe"..., but not so good boss fights and overall the only thing that I found interesting in this game is the first play-through. Afterwards the game got too frustrating booring and felt like I am in a fancy, but limited box which has nothing to offer after completing the storyline! Like go play unbalanced and unenjoyable "PVP" or spend tons of hours to get extra 1 armor or damage...    … Expand

Unless you keep up with the latest expansions and max you level out you are just going to lose each fight. So in other words it's pay to win.

    Lets make a review.

    I really like this game. I don't know why did I started this game but now I'm quite addicted because of the lore, characters, loots, design, weapons, etc. I found some very good characters what I can really like or even hate :D I joined this game in Season of Arrival era and god that season was so entertaining and very eventful.

    I joined this game in Season of Arrival era and god that season was so entertaining and very eventful. I managed to get a very decent amount of gear, and also find a dungeon which is now my favourite (it's Prophecy). In this season, I really get addicted in this game. I was even so hyped when the season ending live event happened. I literally was awake from 1am till 4am just because that event.

    HOWEVER!

    In beyond light, something changed.
    The story itself was cool and entertaining and able to see Ana Bray again is a huge plus, also the whole story is around the Brays so it's not that bad. I'M still waiting Rasputin to return as an Exo lifeform. However the Season of Hunt is just....BORING.
    Wrathborn Hunt (or watever what it is) is repetitive and short and way to empty and boring. Loots are not that amazing (but the seasonal SMG is good so that's an exception), weapons are boring and the fact that Bungie brought back the Seven Seraph weapons from Season of Worthy just completely turned those new weapons useless and unwanted piece of trash.

    Also Bungie still can't separate the game between PVP and PVE which caused already so much problem like weapon disable, stasis bug which caused Trials of Osiris to delayed untill 18th of December. Iron Banner has only 2 new weapons and that's all. In Trials of Osiris, you cannot achieve all weapons because you don't have time to do it because of those delays. So the PVP content still screwed.

    But what about the raid, Deep Stone Crypt.

    Now that's a completely different story.
    I'm not that Raid type of player but god this raid is so good and bit easy but the lore behind is so good.
    I'm not gonna say something from the raid. Just play it and you will understand.
    Raid weapons and clothes are so good looking and very strong!
    The new raid exotic is just overkill.

    Also generic game problem: Bungie for the love of god! Please fix the problem when enemies just popping to somewhere else! It's super annoying when I'm using my super and the boss just disappearing and reappearing somewhere else! Thank you!

    Overall, this game still 7/10
    + Graphics
    + Characters
    + Story
    + Loots from raid
    - Lots of bug
    - Lots of delaying

    - Nonsense decisions
    - NO NEW CONTENT after Beyond Light
    - Absolutely no reason to grind anymore!    … Expand

    This game has the potential and definintly all the elements to be a top notch game but that's far from what it acrualy is. The game just gets boring after just 10 hours or so. It is very repetitive and the plot is certainly very shallow. Would definintly not recommend.

    Edit 2020: Definitely don't recommend playing Destiny 2 anymore due to them removing older content and putting a cap on gear and weapons forcing you to get rid of things you like using and equipping newer stuff, further making you grind.
    Also the more I played the more I realised how D2 has far too much time-limited content. This isn't fun they're taking this same bad decision further.

    Good game but with way too many problems

    You have to go out of your way to get the main quests
    Frequent disconnects and crashes
    Unbalanced guns

    A decent time waster with friends for mindless shooting. Setting, characters and world design is unbelievably bland. Dialogue is either cringe or passable. A really forgettable experience overall. Would not play this if not with friends. Graphics are nice though and gunplay is solid.

    After spending 70 hours, i realized that destiny is just a fancy package over bitter candy. Game is pretty, guns feels good, so does combat and balance of sub classes. However all that is being greatly overshadowed by the negatives.

Game is pretty, guns feels good, so does combat and balance of sub classes. However all that is being greatly overshadowed by the negatives.

    1. Game has no social system. there is no LFG tool, there is no search for clan tool, voice chat is bugged for half people. regular chat work in such a bad manner that people never use it, or even see messages. Like you sit in your main lobby, asking questions in general chat, but than it's just you, no one sees it, because chat is always hidden.

    2. End game content here is PVP (which is alright) and raids and dungeons (which are pretty much raids for small groups). These raids and dungeons are pure mini games, like jumping puzzles, riddle solving and etc. They have no noob difficulty where you would go into a guided raid, learn mechanics and etc. Nope, none of that, if you suck at solving riddles or jump puzzles, that's it. Lower difficulty only means mobs have less hp and less modefiers, but why would you care for it if you still cant complete the mini game in time.

    3. PvP, mean while it would be fun, but they removed match maker, so now there ton of skilled PVPers griefing on people who dont play pvp, or play a little just for fun. So yeah, go ahead and have your butt kicked.

    4. Game is not region locked, meaning that at about midnight, you will meet mostly Asian players, Asain clans, like from Korea, where gaming is a job. God forbid you want to do some pvp.

    5. Game has WoW style gear thread mill, meaning that you grind out your item level to the cap available in current season, when season ends, all that gear goes to hell and you have to regrind it over.

    6. campaigns are bad, specifically they have barely any narrative, or what you would call a good story. basically, you run up to campaign NPC, he than talk to you (havent seen mouth move or any thing, just voice). Than you accept the quest (campaign) and watch 15-30 seconds cinematic, after that you go grind outposts or kill juggernauts for 30 minutes, come back, hand in quest, rinse and repeat. This is literally boring.

    7. Game has no viable navigation. after tutorial you're swarmed with bunch of quests and bounties (literally another version of quests, just different name). from that point on you dont know what to do. game doesnt tells you where to go, how to advance, what is important in the game (yes important because old content's loot almost entirely obsolete) and etc.

    8. lastly, there are ton of bugs which still sprout out of no where, thats in a 2 year old game, like genral bugs, like calling character menu with bind wont work, quests glitching (wont let you complete) and many others.

    9. ah one more thing. like in every game there is meta, which is fine. but guns that dont make it into the meta, are obsolete, to the point that teams wont take you into the raid if you dont have specific guns. Needless to say, in pvp people with "right" guns will always kick your ass, simply because their time to kill is way better than yours.

    I feel bad as i already spend money on pass and 2 DLCs which ended up being trash, i cant get a refund as i played too long and i've only played for 2 weeks. I'll finish this season just to get my money worth and will part with the game.    … Expand

    I've played Destiny since the first game launched. I've had to take breaks from it for one reason or another.

I've had to take breaks from it for one reason or another. Starting with the last few DLCs of the first game I saw things being cut that really shouldn't have been cut and things added that shouldn't have been added. The downward spiral started when Destiny 2 launched. You are given the choice of importing your Destiny 1 character, awesome. However there is no actual reason to import, no unique dialog options, no unique gear, nothing but false hope. Then in the first mission you loose everything and it was all set up as "Take back what you lost" its actually "Lets start from a Clean Slate" instead. Then the shift to seasons brought the F.O.M.O (Fear of Missing out.) This basically made it so you have to play insane amounts or loose out on gear, unless you want to spend $50-$100 to purchase season ranks. There is very little replay ability once the campaign is finished. usually limited to Raids, Strikes, and the randomly selected 3 weekly heroic story missions. The game caters to the hardcore no stop gamers who have no life and once they get everything they want either move on to another game or go into the PvP arena and make a nuisance of themselves. There is also a large emphasis on the Crucible PvP. all the gear gets balanced shortly after its released so there isn't an unfair advantage in PvP. This is more commonly called "being Nerfed" this ends up more times than not making the gear almost worthless. Doubly so for gear nerfed for PvP reasons as they become a hindrance in PvE. There is no realism, a sidearm user rushing a LMG while being continuously pegged in the face but still takes out the LMG user? Nope nothing wrong with that, perfectly good. Yea, I call that broken.

    Now large amounts of content is being cut out because they are concerned the game is to large and they want to release more content. Now we are back to FOMO. This game is not casual player friendly. If you can't dedicate 3-4 hours a night and a good potion of your weekend you more than likely will loose out on portions of the game, and even if you do you are at the mercy of RNG(Random Number Generators) for loot. You can run the same thing 50 times and not get what you are after. Its very easy for casual players to either get fed up and quit, or just burn out from doing the same content repeatedly to get something before its removed. There has been some fun content, like season 9. But it was season content and was pulled from the game at the end of that season. Heck some of the content was even pulled during the season. Also the Forsaken DLC things were looking up, but it didn't hold.

    Those who say the game has potential, i completely agree. However its unrealized and ignored potential. Example, Destiny 1 the Guardian could talk. Then near the end all of a sudden, nope they are mute now. Then in Destiny 2 the Guardian is still mute and the Ghost does all the talking. Am I the only one who misses the banter between the Ghost and the Guardian from Destiny 1? It added depth. Then there was the tease of voice lines during the Forsalen Campaign. But that was more of a slap to the faces, they only have like 3 lines throughout the entire campaign, otherwise nope, just Ghost talking again.

    The change of Ghost's voice. This bugged be as Ghost went from "I have seen things, I know things." to the whole "I'm in charge, you listen to me" that he comes off as whiny arrogance. That I put on those who wrote the lines and scenes and insisted it be more "light-hearted" Both voice actors can do amazing things, but can only do so much when what they do is micromanaged by others.

    A big issue is the games lacks content, and what content it does have keeps getting cut. The game supports 4k resolution, its NOT going to be small in file size. If its a size issue, make the game modular, so gamers have the choice what they want installed at a given time. Or if they want everything then they can have all 100GB+. As for FOMO, its a mechanic to try and force players to play more and/or spend Real Life money to keep caught up. its a disservice to players, same with Gaming as a Service. Too many games require a server to play and when the server is shut down, well, can't play the game again, even as single player. For this game you really need to think to yourself "Do i want to play for casual fun, or spend every spare minute I have playing in a complicated timesink of a downward spiral." Unless there are large changes, I see the Destiny series will continue to struggle, or fall apart completely.    … Expand

For those who do not know, the softcap is 1200 (for the Season of the Hunt), which you can reach easily, because all of the common gear drops will raise you Power Level, but once you reach that, you will need to grind for hours and hours, to get Powerful and Pinnacle engrams. The only problem is, that if your Power Level is, say, 1207 and you get a Power 1210 weapon, your Power Level will not budge, and, keeping in Mind that there is a limit on how many Engrams you can get a week (because of weekly quests) you will need to grind for a few weeks, or even months. And this is only for one character, however I will get into that later.
    Now, let's talk about the Bungie reward system. Personally, I enjoy it. Being able to complete an in-game task and be rewarded cause I did it, is, admitedly, pretty cool. It does have its flaws. First of all, there are many challanges that require expansions, and very rarely does a free-to-play challange appear. Secondly, the rewards themselves are not that exciting, most of them are jackets and pins, sometimes you also get an in-game banner. Secondly, sometimes the things you need to do and the time0frames you are given to do them are just ridiculous.
    Now, for my third and final part of the review, the multi-character system. This one was made just so you would spend even more time grinding, in my opinion at least.    … Expand

    This game is pretty on the outside(for marketing it's perfect) and disgusting on the inside(once you actually play, it's obviously just a cash grab). The art is beautiful, but why wouldn't it be? That's all you need to sell a game nowadays to people, pretty graphics and good music.

    Obviously if the base game was good, why would anyone buy DLC (thinks bungievision).

    This game could've been great, but money. They decided to re-release Destiny and remove everything good about it. It seems that Bungie looked at how The Sims can release a new game with zero features so that they can sell them later as expansions.

    However Bungie seems to have forgotten that they are not selling their game to teenage girls. They dumbed down every system, they made all the loot the same, they made it so the "casuals" aren't overwhelmed, but are casuals really as stupid as Bungie thinks? I think they aren't.

    Just because your testers are middle-aged men who never played a game in their life, doesn't mean that an average gamer wouldn't be able to figure out how your game works. Even casuals aren't as stupid as this game thinks they are.

    I wish any of this meant anything, but in the end, they made their moneys and they will continue their **** business practices until they run out of people who buy their games/micro-transactions.

    I am never going to buy anything that has the label Bungie/Activision EVER again. Fool me once... I can do without playing your generic ****.

    If the first game was on released today on PC, not a single person would be playing Destiny 2 after finishing the story. That's how empty this game is.    … Expand

    Destiny 1.5 with empty world and endless grind as end-game content.
    Maybe in future Bungie will fix this, but now my score is 0/10.

    When i first bought this game, I accepted that $60 would buy me half of a completed game, with the rest being locked behind expansion paywall. That's just how this BS gaming industry is now. Now that expansion 1 is out, I feel like I got about $5 of extra content, when I essentially paid for $15 since expansion bundle added $30 for 2 expansions. This kind of makes sense because this expansions was released two months after initial release on PC.

    Let me repeat that: Activision and Bungie released a $15 EXPANSION 2 to 3 months after release of base game.

    Okay, the DLC is short and doesn't add much. Let's accept that. Oops, half of the vanilla $60-half game is now locked behind DLC paywall. Good.

    People who were fortunate enough to not fall into the season pass trap now cannot access prestige-level content that they once had access to. They are honestly the true winners here since they now have a very valid excuse to finally drop this sad excuse of a AAA title.

    Other things that make this game suck.
    No chat outside of fireteam/squad.
    No true ranked PVP (although they said they will prioritize this in 2018).
    No in-game stats.
    Shader system built around microtransactions. (Shaders are consumable PER ARMOR PIECE). Want to buy specific shaders? You need to wait for it to be on rotation as well as use special currency that you get from loot boxes.
    Boring endgame, nothing to look forward to since everything is so easy to get.
    Raid is boring and pointless.
    Leveling feels so dumbed-down.
    Story is written for children. It's so cheesy and generic, the dialogue had me cringe a couple of times.
    Token system is no fun.
    Long TTK in Crucible is to promote sticking with team, i get it. But team-shooting is the only way to win and it makes PVP so predictable and boring. No longer do we see exciting 1v3+ clutches. Crucible is basically follow your team or you'll die. There's not even teamwork since there is no tactic involved. it's just 4 people grouping up and catching enemy lone wolves.

    I give this score 1 point for the amazing graphics and soundtrack. I would give it 2 points but good visuals and audio are basically nothing if the game is not fun and is a scam.

    Please Bungie, i fell in love with Destiny 1 three years ago on PS4. I told all my friends to get this game, and you really let all your fans down. It took me 2 months to finally admit that this game is a disaster. Thank you for scamming us all.

    I also want to give Bungie two big thumbs up for having the balls to deliver such a beautiful scam to contend for the epitome of the pinnacle of the mother of all scams: EA's prized jewel in which i don't want to name.    … Expand

    At first I thought this game is amazing but it's so flawed that it only deserves 0/10 imo.
    The PvP is even worse than the one in dishonored. P2P, Broken Matchmaking and you can't f***ing reconnect if you game kicks you out for no reason.

    $60 for only 80 missions seemed wrong. Half of them re-ran you through the same areas multiple times with some different mobs and different voice acting. The same room was explained as different things depending on the quest. It was fun, but then I tried playing with a friend. We game a lot and don't have networking issues, however on this game we were plagued with disconnects. Also as we warped to different zones on the same map we had to communicate where we were as there was no map indicator. Strikes were OK, but the raiding is difficult unless you're part of a big clan. 3rd party tools are being used to find players, which require adding b.net friends and inviting them to a party and then dropping them at the end of the run.

    tldr: not enough content for $60, missing a pug option or in game community system to find & meet new players. Already going to make my account useless in a month with DLC, so it costs about $100 to buy in and stay relevant for 9 months.    … Expand

    - Weapon and armor customisation is limited - you can only make slight adjustments.

    - Content is full of padding and rehashed/reworded quests.

    - Content is repetitive, and similar to stuff found in budget F2P games.

    - Most of the game is empty space, empty corridors and empty buildings, connected by 'rooms' or 'courtyards' of enemies. Again, similar to budget games.

    - It feels like the game has been built as a DLC platform. First DLC being released a couple of months after the main game.

    - The endgame is relatively stale and empty, as other (non professional) reviewers have said. What content has been offered is unrewarding; The stuff that is rewarding is limited to weekly-reset quests.

    Its feels profit focused.
    The best way to describe this game is it is a high budget free to play game, that also costs $60 dollars to play and the extra content is $35, not $5. The mechanics feel similarly grindy, and with the same satisfaction. It feels like its got tons of potential, and is fun for a few hours before you realize, nonononono I don't want this.    … Expand

This game also requires knowledge of the first game; if you don't know what happened in Destiny 1 you will have no idea what is going on. Not only is there almost no end-game content, but Bungie is also posed to launch a DLC that users have to pay for in December. Besides a few obvious differences like how they jump, the classes are extremely similar and only differentiate in a few ways. The talent trees for each class are extraordinarily dull and don't really change the way you play the game. People have said that this is a MMO-type FPS, but don't be fooled. This is not a MMO nor is it anywhere near one.

    The good parts of this game are the combat systems and the looks of the game. It really is one of the prettiest games I've ever seen and the combination of multiple weapon choices and weapon mechanics make combat exciting. There's also no difficulty settings so you can't ramp up the overly-easy standard difficulty or turn off the hilarious auto-aim setting.

    While Destiny 2 has a solid foundation and a robust story campaign, its endgame content feels a little lacklustre. The sandbox doesn't have a whole lot of depth, and plumbing each of the hub worlds for secrets doesn't feel that rewarding. Grinding Public Events, Raids, and Strikes with friends is definitely a lot of fun, but there's a huge disconnect between content being cleared and your character strength increasing. There's still a lot of room for Destiny 2 to grow but, for now, it's still got a few kinks to work out.
